Savage Black / Death Metal out of Texas.
Albuquerque thrash metal veterans active since 2008. Their conceptual An Infinite Winter series spans multiple volumes exploring themes of memory and mortality, while earlier releases deliver the raw thrash fury the New Mexico desert breeds so reliably.
Phoenix death metal project from the Arizona underground.
Ashburn sludge metal project from the Virginia underground.
Queens deathcore project with a massive nine-release output since 2019. Albums like Cool Is Watching You and How Will All This End? suggest existential anxiety beneath the breakdowns, an unusually introspective approach for the genre emerging from New York City's outer boroughs.
Atlantic Highlands death metal project from the New Jersey underground.
Oakland death metal project from the California underground.
Oklahoma black metal project shrouded in deliberate obscurity. Minimal information and a single untitled release — black metal reduced to its most essential and enigmatic form.
Newtown black metal project from the Connecticut underground.
